<graph> encodes a graph, which is a collection of nodes, and arcs which connect the nodes.
Attributes:
type describes the type of graph.
Datatype: CDATA
Legal values:
undirected undirected graph
directed directed graph
transition network a directed graph with distinguished initial and final nodes
transducer a transition network with up to two labels on each arc
Default: #IMPLIED
Note

If type=undirected , then the distinction between the to and from attributes of the <arc> tag is neutralized. Also, the adj attribute, rather than the adjFrom and adjTo attributes, should be used to encode pointers to the ends of the arcs. If type=directed (or any other value which implies directionality), then the adjFrom and adjTo attributes should be used, instead of the adj attribute.

label gives a label for a graph.
Datatype: CDATA
Values: A character string.
Default: #IMPLIED
order states the order of the graph, i.e., the number of its nodes.
Datatype: NUMBER
Values: A positive integer.
Default: #IMPLIED
size states the size of the graph, i.e., the number of its arcs.
Datatype: NUMBER
Values: A nonnegative integer.
Default: #IMPLIED
Example
<graph type=undirected
       id=cug1
       label='Airline Connections in Southwestern USA'
       rend='LABEL-PLACE bottom center NODE-FRAME none ARC solid line'
       order=5
       size=4>
  <node label=LAX id=LAX degree=2>
  <node label=LVG id=LVG degree=2>
  <node label=PHX id=PHX degree=3>
  <node label=TUS id=TUS degree=1>
  <node label=CIB id=CIB degree=0>
  <arc  from=LAX to=LVG>
  <arc  from=LAX to=PHX>
  <arc  from=LVG to=PHX>
  <arc  from=PHX to=TUS>
  </graph>

<graph type=directed
       id=rdg2
       label='Selected Airline Routes in Southwestern USA'
       rend='LABEL-PLACE bottom center NODE-FRAME none ARC solid line
